Special Duty Combat Unit Shinesman



Though only one has been translated, and it doesn't look like anymore more will be made, but in this case, I think the tape is great enough on its own (though I'd love to watch more). The show is really funny, especially if you watch a lot of anime. I personally think the bad guys are the cutest things in the show (as seen below).



The Special Combat Unit is made up of five members: Red, Moss Green, Salmon Pink, Gray, and Sepia. The main character is Hiroya Matsumoto, who is red. When he was being interviewed for The Right Corporation, they asked what color he taught was approperate for a super hero. He said red, was signed on the team, and soon learned that there was more to his new job than desk work. The aliens are trying to control earth through the corporate world. The girl alien has a crush on Matsumoto.



Bring on the anime.
The Red Shinesman is the leader. He lives with his young brother. His brother watches a show very similar to the Power Rangers. The little guy later decides that the red Special Duty Combat Unit Shinesman is his favorite. Matsumoto is very glad to hear it.
Gray's only concern is his jeep/truck vehicle. His car also happens to be gray. (Wonder where he got the idea for a super hero color?)
Miss Pink is often sent for snacks by her male co-workers and always vows not to be their slave again, but all she does is destroy whatever she got for the guys. (In other words, she crushes them in her hand.) She has pink hair, by the way.
The playboy of the group, he's always worried about missing his hot date of that evening. Go Moss Green!
The married man in the group, he has a cute little daughter whom he gets a "giant stuffed fish" for. The picture of her on his desk seems to change rather often.
Now this little girlly is related to the purple haired alien, but he really does not like her at all. The feeling is more or less mutual. She does decide she likes Matsumoto when he sees her in her underwear. She more or less chases after and harrasses the poor guy.
